URBAN Photo Awards is a prestigious annual event dedicated to celebrating photography and photographers. The 2023 edition promises to be the biggest and best ever and will feature renowned photographer Alec Soth as its jury chair. In addition, the jury for the event, which is currently being finalized, is made up of a selection of industry experts, including Alec Soth himself and Jerome Sessini, who will make the event even more prestigious and many others.

As usual, there are several categories in which photographers can enter their work. The competition has the theme Urban Life and focuses on urban photography as a form of expression that explores the contemporary. In particular, the theme focuses on all forms of photography set in a city context, where the City, the urban environment and the people who populate it are the common denominator. Images should show everyday life in metropolises and small towns, the contrasts and contradictions that characterize urban and suburban life, artistic details, architectural geometries, and fragments of color that break the monotony of the city. In addition, the images should be authentic and immediate, able to tell the story of the city and the stories that take place within it. A number of prizes will be awarded to the winners.
